I love the punchy saltiness of halloumi and find it an invaluable standby, since it can be kept in its pack in the fridge for months. This is one of the many ways I cook it, and the confetti of red pepper gives glamour and heat.
For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.

I made this for breakfast with eggs and it was wonderful, I didn't have a non stick pan so I used some olive oil and fried it in a cast iron pan, turned out great.

One of my favorites! I've been making it for years, of course, since I have all of Nigella's books. And I like to sprinkle chopped parsley over the dish for taste AND visual pleasure!

I think I’ll use my Lao Gan Ma Chili Crisp or a hot Sichuan chili oil with chili flakes.

I scented the oil also with some lemon zest. Absolutely delicious!

Halloumi also freezes fabulously!
being Cypriot I should know. If it’s not vacuum packed ,just wrap in grease proof paper + zip lock bag of some kind and place in freezer until needed

This is yummy and my preferred topping to a burger (with some bacon jam and a splodge of Dijon mustard!)
